Tard Timing MP3 (Miss Kim Vocal ReMix)

by Dan n’ Kim

tard time
… kim and i…
time to tard it up
kim and dan being retarded…
on the fly and drinking 7up

Kimmy kimmy coco puff,
tard .
kind-of ruff.
… and a little tough.
she’s toaking, smoking…
a toaken of appreciation.
and, a mongaloidian celebration…

re, re, re retarding

put on the music…
you call this music…?

put on the music
let’s turn it up, up, up

dan… dan… dan the man.
if he can’t play it, no one can.

put it in the song, dude
put it in the song.
this is too much work by far.
i’m at the bar.
this is taking way too long,

… just proving the point
this joint was built for tard time…
ta, ta, ta, tard time

tar, tar, tar, tard timing

tar, tar, tar, tard timing…
a mongaloidian celebration…
tards rhyming…
a mongaloidian celebration…
retardation…
a mongaloidian celebration…
retard nation…
a mongaloidian celebration…
liberation…
outside the box…
cunning fox…
a mongaloidian celebration…

ABOUT
This song concept and lyrics started… then, found themselves at the Victory Brewing Company in Downingtown, Pennsylvania, USA. From there, the tard timing machine traveled through the West Chester music scene.

Through the use of technology, the Tards bring you music made by humans using machines and tools. The entire song was created using free software found on the Internet.

Vocals
The lyrics were input into the voice synthesizer software program *Voice Mix Studio 4*
Part One of the Female Vocalist Music Software

The Beats
The beats were created using the DubStep Studio website.

About Four Dimensional Music and Chaos Theory

These comments were made about the above discussion:

Ed called… and left a message (he has experience with the dead, is a member of the Family):
He has already attempted to contacted with “the bear” on other matters… and this type of music sounds like it is right up his alley.

He suggests we should also try to get with the bear, too.
The bear http://thebear.org/

I ask, “the bear is the grateful dead sound guy that kind-of invented the modern PA? right?”

Wally added:
His real name – Owsley Stanley
but yes, helped conceive and implement the the dead’s early sound and the infamous “wall of sound” (’74-’76)
75 tons of equipment

Eric chimed in:
I’m going to research information about the the specific musical note of Bb (B flat).
It is of great significance. Exploding stars, musical waves, groovey.

Peter replied:
Numbers and beats–which also affect pitch, but ultimately it is rhythm. the area of four dimensional music must manifest in rhythm as it relates to time. pitch is just a quality of rhythm. the act of a phenomenon in space time and finding a new paradigm in space time, that is the area to attack! computers can help, but it is better to apply this to live experience.

Peter wrote to us: Hello. I am a composer and I have been obsessed with four dimensional music recently. I don’t know what it is, even though it is a recurring idea. I have been reading a lot and have discovered that the world of fractals and chaos seem to have a definite relationship to four D. I am not a computer programmer, so I would not be applying this to a program but am interested in applying it to acoustic works.

WE REPLIED:
Dear Peter,
OK. Let’s see what we can do.
How would you like to get started?
Sincerely,
Daniel

PETER REPLIED:
How to translate irrational numbers into a tangible working time signature — like Pi or Cantor Dust.

SIDD OFFERED:
Take the digits of pi and set them to tune, using the numbers for chord progressions?

WE ASK:
Anyone have ideas?

PART 2

rick (guitar, vocals, sound engineering) replied:
Beyond my ability to compute, but interested in the outcome…..I have trouble just keeping 6 strings in tune

krishna (guitar, percussion, computer engineering) replied:
One interesting feature of fractals is the self similarity at various length scales.
Of course the length scales aren’t simple multiple or rationally related  with each other which is what makes it fractal.
Not sure how one would play that without a computer.
I have a hard enough time staying with a band playing a regular meter :-0

chris asked:
Is this what you and Eric were working on?

I responded:
Yes. Here are a couple examples —

Dan, I gave your info. to Tumaini Johnson. Maybe you can explain your knowledge and insight on 4 dimensional and chaos theory to combine the two into music. I think it’s chaos systems within
a chaos system that can be duplicated into math sequences delivered through sound and visual effects??? cc me i would like to learn… and tumaini im sure will have a good canvas to create his own ideas.

tumaini wrote:
I’m a friend of Francisco Baiz he told me about your work with dimensional audio and some experimenting with algorithms and the sorts. I’m a music producer and audio engineer so this type of stuff got my attention. Francisco said that you would be able to explain exactly what 4D music is and its future applications to me, I’m very curious.
Thanks

i try to explain:
About 4D Music and Chaos Theory Experiment
The experiment with four dimensional music and chaos theory started in the 1990’s. The word music may not be the best way to describe the experience; for now, since I do not know a word for this design invention, I will call it four dimensional music.

The experiment has evolved into solving the following design problem(s):
If you were to go on a real, real, real long roadtrip… such as in a spaceship traveling at a speed approaching that of light, what music would you take with you?

Because many of the people involved in the experiment are also musicians, we added the requirement that the design should allow for “live music” and the ability to see a concert.

The closest example of the concept that I can think of is helping a deaf person hear music.

I think the movie was called “Mr. Holland’s Opus” — the movie about Glenn Holland, a musician and composer who wants his deaf son to hear his music?
